Ignition relocation.

So I been wanting to relocate my ignition and ordered the relocation kit. For those of you thinking about it, here are the instructions and what you actually get. I was surprised how little there was to it, but then again not sure what I expected. If you could get the right connectors you could probably save a few bucks, but it is nice to have it pre-made.

Be sure to coat those connectors on the extension cable, mine corroded and fell apart after a few months. Best I can tell, they didn't use tinned copper, just plain old copper which is fine in a car, but not a bike (or boat).

Thanks Marcus, I will do that. Install looks a little involved, not a 20 minute deal. I'll wait until I am not rushed so I can take my time.

Are you going to the poker run tomorrow? I would but I am going to Orting to pick up a bike. 2001 KZ1000 Police with 30K miles on it. Don't ask me why but got a great deal and had to have it. My first bike in 1980 was a KZ1000 Police.

PowerTrip, great resource for connectors, thank you.

No, I have a data at E. Brem. Walmart to catch a local business owner in the act of kicking the homeless folks (that Walmart allows to stay there) out of the parking lot then it's back to the kitchen to prepare Saturday evening meals.

East Bremerton, that's my backyard. If you need a heavy let me know, although I am sure you got a handle on it.

Well?, Well?, Well?
Did you get a picture or two of the local businessman kicking the homeless or not?
Didn't let your humanity over ride your spiritual side when you witnessed it did you?
ALOT of folks don't like walmart for alot of different reasons,
they buy cheap crap from china, therefore have cheaper quality products.
But they do take a vested interest in their communities.
The Distribution Center I and my wife work at,
hands out cash to ANY club or organization they can help,
in any of the little towns around here.
Need new football uniforms,
just ask.
Softball equipment for the girls summer league?
just ask.
We're always doing some charitable drive for childrens miracle network.
Then there's the cancer walk every year.
I think we donated 1,500 dollars to that this year.
I'm not any kind of big wig out there,
just your ordinary forklift operator.
So it didn't surprise me when you said walmart lets the homeless hang out there.
As far as big companies go,
they try to do the right thing.
But back on topic,
did you get any pictures or not?
And now that I'm thinking about it again,
are you gonna run for any office this fall?
I'm really wanting to myself.
Just don't know how to go about it.
Acquiring the cash flow to mount a proper campaign

Bit off topic from the ignition relocation so sorry Mitch...

Skip,

Yes, we went out to Walmart to observe. I had posted the mission's Facebook profile that we were going to be investigating the issue. I didn't name any names, just a location.

I'm pretty sure someone put two and two together and told the guy because when he showed up, he was PISSED OFF. He stood there arms folded and stared at the homeless folks and their vehicles, he'd look around like he was seeing if anyone was watching and you could just tell he wanted to go over to them but he held back. He'd pace back and forth but not once did he do what we were told he does. But it was so obvious that he wanted to.

We hung out until about 10AM, by that time most of the homeless had woken up on their own and headed off to the State park for a shower.

I'd say it was a success and I'll be out there again, this time I won't be posting it on Facebook and we'll see how it goes.

As for Walmart, yes, a lot of people hate Walmart. They don't like how they treat employees but in my mind, it's a free country, nobody has to work at Walmart, if they don't like it, find another job. Walmart isn't doing anything illegal. Also, they have the cheapest price I can find on healthy breakfast cereals and fruit (which I hand out to the homeless). Sorry, I'm a non-profit, I'm going to buy what I hand out at the cheapest possible price I can. And yes, Walmart gives thousands and thousands of dollars to the local communities where they setup stores.

Costco does as well. Every Costco warehouse (store) has someone on staff that is responsible for distributing their charitable funds within their local community. These employees join the local Chambers of Commerce, Rotary, Kiwanis, etc. and make sure Costco is doing whatever they can to help the community. They often do it with little publicity.
